As of April 5, 1996 you have been gone from us...a long 7 years.
I know you're in HEAVEN talking with your mom (Ann B. Schuetz)
and your Dad (Herbert F. Schuetz) and your oldest brother (Norbert
Schuetz).
Your other dear children, Dawn M. Schuetz-Verburgt, Jeff C. Schuetz,
Denise A. Schuetz-Zubic and myself think about
you every day. Even your Dog "Shotzie" misses you and your daily walks
in the park.
We miss your funny jokes. Boy how time flies...it feels like just
yesterday you were joking with us.
All our Love and God Bless You, your son,
Paulie
Dear Paulie,
One of God's greatest gifts to all of us is the gift of laughter.
To miss that aspect of your relationship with your dad testifies
to the greatness of the gift and how much a part of a normal grief
journey it is to miss that. Next time you hear a funny joke, laugh
twice; once for yourself, and once for dad. He will be glad you
did.
My best and God Speed Your Grief Journey,
Patrick Dean, MEd, Director
